This person was the biggest inspiration of 2021 for me. Thank you mr Chan for unknowingly introducing me to the wonderful world of bonsai! I wish you a happy and healthy 2022.
I am glad I am doing something useful - that's what I always feel when I make these videos.
so wholesome. I just discovered this channel
Ya I'm totally inspired by his actions
Very try
Very true
I think it is great you sell these seedlings you make on video to people who come and visit you at your store.
RUclips just began showing me these videos. Watching these gives me hope and joy. I'll most likely never make a bonsai, but I appreciate them on a deeper way. Thank you, Mr. Chan, from a viewer in Indiana.
I love that you keep reminding us how this craft does not need to be expensive!
Do you like your random RUclips videos during the week instead of just Saturdays at 2 AM
Let's think 4 a second 3AM est is oh yeah 8am England time. He probably post first thing when he gets 2 work
Padma, your camera work really expands our enjoyment of Peter's demonstrations.
I have for many years been a weekend Gardener, and after the death of my Father I became the owner of a Chinese Elm Bonsai that my father had been looking after. Not really knowing how to look after it, I fed and watered it but I almost lost it as I didn’t know how to pot it on. After watching a few RUclips videos I came across Master Peter Chan and now I have become a bit addicted! However I don't have the money to buy some of the ready made Bonsai and this is where Master Chan steps in and goes out of his way to help those of us on a budget, create some lovely bonsai using his starter material. THANK YOU!
I forgot to add, the little tips you mention now and then, such as leaving a bit of green at the end of a branch to keep from killing the branch, is so useful. This is information I did not know before, and I've watched many of your video.
The more I watch videos like this the more I'm getting into pines. Pines are not very common where I am. Thank you for another great video love all the caring and sharing
Most pine need a cold winter plz be sure you can grow em where you are
@@andersnrregren9087 we get plenty cold enough winters they just very common here. We have the typical Xmas trees in gardens. To be fair not been to a nursery in ages
@@andersnrregren9087 no not really I live in pine county USA zone 8 so pretty mild and we literally have millions of pines to choose from. NC 2 be exact the tar heels which came from the pine tar makers in the 1700s. Which is y I'm calling my company Carolina tar hands (which I came up with after trimming a lot of bud lol now we will just say because of working with pine bonsai)
Eastern 5 needle White pines found in our slightly colder mountains, American black pines 2 needle "lob lolley" found in our Piedmont region then the yellow 3 needle "longleaf" found in our coastal plains.

This is the best tutorial I have ever watched regarding the art of bonsai. Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge, passion and peaceful approach. Your calm demeanor and gentle voice have swept away much of the intimidation that stands between me and my first tree. Thank you again.
I have found this video by accident, but I am grateful for the algorithm for recommending it for me. Thank you Mr. Chan for inspiring me, I'm running into a nursery to purchase some seedlings. I wish you the best in your life, lot of health and happiness.❤
a national treasure, godspeed
Excellent video! Had no idea you could bonsai a pine you beautifully!I’m in South Mississippi, USA. Within 30ft of my back porch is 50 acres of pines. So thick you can’t walk thru it. Millions of seedlings as well. I may have a new hobby!
Here in 2024 and appreciate this video so much ❤
I'm going to use some of Mr. Chan's bonsai techniques for making topiary from the many volunteers that sprout in my yard every year. Thank you!
Again Peter demystifies the art . Shares he’s knowledge willingly and freely . What a Gezzer ! We all owe him a pint
In the medicinal industry we use a lot of different root pruning techniques for a number of reasons so anyone saying our guy is wrong by "cutting the cake" they couldnt be more incorrect themselves. Endless respect for all the knowledge my friend, namastè
Cup of coffee ,cat on lap, both watching Peter at work . Lovely start to the day, even though the real start of the day was 05:30.
Thank you, the sharing and watching of your handling of these varied trees is a great inspiration! I feel grateful to have a deep connection to my plants over my lifetime and the further evolution into bonsai is a joyful journey! I am in New Hampshire, USA, my zone is 4 to 5 and I am at an elevation just under 2000ft. over a lake, all of which obviously effect my outdoor hardiness. Your mastery and teaching are giving me great help in my plans! I am in my second career in my sixties at a fine nursery where my lifelong love is being fostered. Thank you again for sharing so generously, I can't wait to learn more! Gratefully, Lisa B. Ford
Go for it - Bonsai is my third career. So its never too late to start a new venture.
Hey Lisa!
I am actually in NH as well. On the mtns Indians called “breasts mtns” if your local you’d know which mtns I speak of. My daughter and I have recently started getting into plants and crystals. Very fun adventures. If you have any bonsai trees I’d love to see them. As well as any knowledge about bonsai tips in our area. Thanks.
Wonderful video as always, and I don't mean to knock Peter's practice - I realise he is demonstrating the "instant bonsai that people want" - Just remember folks, if you wish to fatten the trunks quickly, don't put trees in small pots, they will grow faster in the ground or larger container. Once the trunk is suitable, start training the roots into a smaller container, focusing on achieving a pleasing and healthy nebari, then refine the canopy. From seedling, this may take 5-40 years, depending on species and end goal.
So much valuable information in a single video. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and expertise with us! I have learned so much!
It is so cathartic to watch you. You are full of knowledge and wisdom... a true artist. I am So privileged to listen and learn. The sound of your voice is very calming and relaxing. So happy you are such a giving person. Thank you for your valuable time.
(I just found you about 4 days ago. I saw my first bonsai in 1976 at the Tulsa State Fair. I was mesmerized...a living sculpture. The man that created them must of thought I was a nut because I stood stunned for 15 minutes. I wanted one so much but I was only 18 and knew I could not afford nor provide a proper home. But now my interest has been renewed.) Oh...by the Way, when you start chopping into a root ball, it is as exciting to me as opening a beautifully wrapped gift. Soooo not boring.

thank you very much and a happy new year , greetings from germany
Thank you for taking the time and trouble to produce these videos. I have been interested in Bonsai for many years but, despite having several books on the subject, never quite had the confidence to give it a go. Watching your videos has given me confidence to try it this year for the first time.Thanks again.
and how did it work out?
Thank you Peter! I recently collected some pine from my parents farm, and was wondering what to do with them!
Now you know
Have you identified the type yet?
@@DavidJones-ty1ht Pinus Radiata/Monterey Pine - the most common around that area :)
thank sir, for your video, it's realy a pleasure to have you regulary at home by the magic of the internet, i which you a good year and a good health.
Thank you, you are a great fountain of knowledge, I can now call someone "cheap " and sound smart, I love learning with you!
Full of surprises Peter! Would never have considered those were multiple plants!
Why not??? Everytime u buy a plant s
Don't you try 2 split it into as many plants as possible when u repot it? If not u should start because I literally put 1 plant back into the pot it came in then repot the rest. 2 each his own I guess me and Mr. Chan are just cheap or smart😉
Thank you for another fantastic lesson Master Chan. While there are many out there going back thousands of years who are credited with progressing the art and hobby to what it is today, I can say without doubt your impact on Bonsai and it’s future is similar in level to the development of wire and clippers. Thank you again for everything.
Thank you Peter I've been watching you videos for about four years now and it never gets tiring to see a first styling on a tree. To think that very tree is gonna look so great with some age on it. Without your knowledge and expertise my sagebrush in my icon would of been dead years ago.
I know you don't want to talk about it but i can't help to think what's gonna happen to Herrons Bonsai when your no longer physically hear to teach and guide us. Even though I know in my heart and mind you always be teaching us and with that knowledge you have given us, your teachings will live on. Being taught from one person to the next and so on.
Thank you.
I’m such a big fan
It’s so nice to learn from you
These videos provide so much knowledge and as a bonus they help me to relax and enjoy life and its beauties. Many blessings to all.
You make it look so easy. I'd like to see a video of one of the trees that you done 2 or three years ago
What a wonderfully kind chap. Thank you for being amazing
Great stuff! I love the pines. You should show your Pinus strobus for us in North America
wow what colours, that ornamantle strawberry is very similar to the maples!, love autumn
AMAZING and Lovely!!!!
Excited watching this video as I have some year old pine seedlings can't wait to grow bit more and aI can attempt my first wiring.
I just recently found your channel. I’ve always found Bonsai amazing but never tried. This video made me realize maybe I could. Every video I’ve watched so far has been so enjoyable. Thank you.
I’m very glad to have found this bonsai channel and I can only say Mr Chan, You are a magician in making a bonsai in minutes from on assuming bunch of pines. Thank You 🙏 for showing us. Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱
Your videos are always an inspiration
Peter, thank you for sharing this video. This type of project would give me something to do if I don't have anything to work on and will increase my bonsai collection. I really don't mind you repeating thing over and over. You know it takes repetition for us to really remember things, this is why I read the same books over and over. Thanks again.
Very interesting observations on wiring. For twisting and restraining the trunk there is no easy alternative to wiring. For other bonsai shaping, there are a couple fun ones I saw in Japan. I witnessed people using a strap of cloth on a branch to support a rope which was tensioned under the pot, to loop around some branch on the other side of the tree. This requires constant re-tying of knots to keep the tensioning, but works well for large trees, and is the same technique used in landscape gardening of huge trees, where the rope is anchored under a boulder or decorative statue (or an ugly cinder block, if the garden is being established with large specimens that need immediate shaping).
I have also seen string with weights being used to bend branches and shoots. This is a terrible idea to try if you experience strong winds - it will all tangle together :P
I’m so grateful for your videos!! Thank you, Thank you!! I’m recently retired, and just took my first Bonsai class today. What a wonderful retirement activity! I have adored trees my whole life, and the art of Bonsai seems a wonderful way to celebrate the wonder of the tree. I’m learning so much from your Channel.
Take wire in one hand and push the branch using the wire to see what bends first if branch bend befor wire wire is thick enough but if wire bend befor branch you may need ticker wire for that branch. It that not a rule of thump?
You can try that method too.
@@peterchan3100 thank you Mr. Chan but don't you think he should specify the length of wire used? 1 inch of thin wire just as strong as 1 foot of thick wire when u think about it. Just over thinking this morning. But I would really like to see how you prepare your large field grown trees for removal. I have an over 30year old dwarf scots pine "beuvronensis" that's only 4ft tall with a 8in trunk it's in the ground at a small Christmas tree farm the man has given me the tree because they are definitely not Christmas tree shape. I have 2 hand dig but was planning on pruning the roots this winter and wait till spring or even next winter if he let's me but he really wants it gone. Please respond I would love 2 show you pictures.
Watching you create and educate is meditative to me. I love bonsai and learning through your videos. Thank you for peace.
Many thanks to you Peter for teaching you the skills of bonsai. You are good as a teacher and finally, yes .., I liked the movie. Many thanks again// Paul
I would love to see a video about how to take the wire off.
I went and dug some from the forest today, excited to get started ty for the videos (:
Amazing peter ❤
I wish you the best in your life and thank you for all this invaluable information that you provide us in every video.
great work by a master, ordered a black pine seeding to pot, after seeing him work with the scotts pine I may get one of those also
Another interesting and informative post, thank you.
Thank you so much for passing on your knowledge
I know that I have already told you on occasion, but it seems to me that you make art with your meek when you quickly design a little tree. Congratulations on your art, I love it
Thank you for showing the simplicity of growing the beautiful bonsai at all levels... your video was superb, absolutely detailed in every area.. Much Appreciated Thank You all the way to the double twist "wire".. Wishing you many more years of growing Mr. ❤
Your handling is Gold and your wisdom is platinum. A tip to the hat Mr. Chan. Thank you a lot.
Thank you sir
I have thousands of yellow pine saplings on my property. Ranging from tiny sprigs 2 inches tall to about 4 ft tall. I may try this on some smaller ones. Thanks for the inspiration
FANTASTIC!!!!!!
Don't know how I missed this video, great stuff since I have about 100 JBP, I wire them and keep them in their 1 gal nursery pot, won't putting them in a small pot slow the growth if you are trying to fatten the trunk? I know if someone just wants a fast tree it doesn't matter as I have several, specially my Japanese Maple Saplings. Thanks for a great video.
I really appreciate your knowledge. It's been very helpful. I now have more than 20 bonsai all doing well and more growing around the property. My neighbors have asked about getting bonsai from me now.
這真的是老師傅的一雙手 盆景都是從小苗修養而成 太美了
😘 Shito size and Mame, thx for sharing Peter, going to try my self 👍. Cheers
Thank you for sharing your knowledge! The ”cutting cake” was new to me, but something that absolutely makes sense! Thanks and Greetings from Finland 🇫🇮
I think, I might now pick some pine sprouts in the forest... There are lots of different types.
Awesome 👍
Great video Peter! Nice shapes on all of these trees :)
Lots of info! Thanks yo
Great video. I like the look of the seedlings in the small pots.
How inspiring! Thank you so much!
Thank you Peter! Nice and useful video!! Very enjoyable
🌲another interesting video Pete especially liked the sap pullers part! 🌿👍
You are amazing. Thank you for all the wonderful things I have learned from you
as always wonderful advice and ideas.❤️🙏🏼
Always inspiring and motivated videos thanks Peter 👍👍🇵🇷
I'm glad you said not to cut below the green. I think I did that! Loosing my plant's. I always was told to cut off the dead branches. Obviously, I didn't understand.
Yes you should always cut off the dead branches. But if there's green on the branch then it's not dead 🤔🤫🤭
Very nice job.
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much you are so generous sharing all your experience and wisdom
magnificent video! thank you!
That’s so nice ! I enjoyed it ,,
He creates magic! Love all that I've learned, and I do thank you sir!
I love this guy and all his wisdom. Thank you so much for sharing your art. Your amazing😀
Bought a bundle from you Peter which included a Scot’s pine which Ive already wired and slip potted into a training pot. Very happy with it especially as Ive had no luck with various pine seeds
Truly amazing, you bring such inspiration and joy to my heart, God bless!
Thank you for all of your words in your Videos! It encourage me to do my first own pine bonsai or even try to do it. Without thinking Bonsai is just for experts. Of course this is no comparison in what you are doing but i had fun and liked it so thank you very much :) greetings from germany.
Thanks Peter. I have two Scotty seedlings that are going to get the treatment after this.
At 34:17, sounds like 2 gunshots in the background?
Love the maple trees at the end!
There is a clay pigeon shoot near by
Grazie mille per questo fantastico video sulla preparazione dei bonsai,lei è un grande maestro!Saluti dalla 🇨🇭🏞da Chris👋🏻👱🏻♀️👍🏻🌷🌷
Hi mr. Chan thanks for all this help aim have done my first air layering and so happy i have whatch your video's all day i put it in more spangummos and stand it in a bit of water so it does not dray out i think it's a conifer From New Zealand
I have both Mugo pine, as well as Scots pine trees. The Mugos are grown everywhere in our area of the North American Continental Divide, the Scots, not so much. I think the Mugos are a favorite, yet still appreciate the Scots varieties as well. For now, my choice of root rake happens to be a dragon claw back scratcher that I purchased for less than 3 US dollars at our local Walgreens Pharmacy. Inexpensive, yes, and still serves the purpose, the item has 5 tines however depending how I position it I am able to angle it to serve the purpose I am attempting to accomplish. For the cost it serves the purpose, considering the true bonsai root rakes are so much more costly. For now, I haven't happened across any sort of substitute for the Jin pliers, so I just use a pair of standard size pair of pliers even though I have to pay a bit more attention with how I use them. Regardless Your videos are always an educational experience regardless. :-)
I love how you see the beauty in all of God’s creation! ❤
He is a god, isn't he!
Hi peter. It would be great for you to show us a video on the brush cherry. Thank you.

I've let a Scots pine seedling grow in a pot for 10+ years and it is now maybe 1.25 in thick at the base and 4 feet tall. Trouble is, I grew it straight as a telegraph pole and classic Christmas tree shape. Is it too late to train as a bonsai? I can't imagine how I'd use a completely straight trunk with the gradual taper of a young tree. I could cruelly lop it in half and use a side branch as a new leader, but it would always have a straight trunk. Better left alone maybe!
You can make it into a garden tree or Niwaki
@@peterchan3100 Thank you, Peter. I will.
*"Everyone has common sense"* "My colleague is laughing" I love this video! :D :))
